Cardiff City vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[lawros left foot]

Only an imbecile ever bets on football (i.e. most of the dullards on here) because of its unpredictable nature. We neither wanted nor 'accept' a draw but that was what happened. Ambition doesn't come into it. Ridiculous post.

I may be an imbecilic dullard but I'm about £230 up this season, and £26 up today

Well I know of at least 1 plumber that wont.

Is that someone who's a bit of a plumb, or someone who works as a plumber?

The team in second is supposed to beat the team second from bottom, so two points dropped.

To be satisfied with a draw today shows a lack of ambition,and an acceptance of second best.

You can't win every match

 

[Thunder Bolt]

So you're not bothered about potential promotion then? Mid table anonymity satisfies?

Any team can beat any team in the Championship.

Take your choice.

Pity others wont. Well I know of at least 1 plumber that wont.

Wrong Direction thinks you're a plank as well so that's two plumbers

Absolutely.
Last season I recall us drawing or losing to a few lower placed crappy teams and the many posts of " it's a point away from home, you can't expect to win them all, they parked the bus etc etc" and then missing out on the prize by a single solitary point.

Are people really moaning?? Get a ****ing grip! A point on the road is a good point.

I don't expect to, but I do expect a better result (and performance given the reports) against second from bottom to insure against potential poor results against closer challengers and better teams. Similar results last year against bottom 5 sides proved very costly.

Not this one. Against the likes of Newcastle - yes. Not Cardiff.

Cardiff or Rotherham seem to unable to mange it.

One more thing on the Cardiff fans. The other time they chanted it was that bloody Iceland hand clap thing.

They're catching up to Reading in the Laughable League table I keep in my mind.

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

Again, it's the assumption that form (Cardiff's) is concrete, something set in stone. It's not, for Newcastle read Cardiff, for Cardiff read Newcastle etc.

Cardiff have improved under Colin, as teams tend to. They won't finish in 23rd place, he'll take them up to mid table. A point, though disappointing, is not that bad a result.

 

[SUIYHP]

Would I have preferred a win? Yes. But this weekend has gone mostly in our favour otherwise, some big losses here for our biggest threats, and we continue maintaining pressure on a slightly more fragile Newcastle, a decent weekend all round imho.

Ridiculous comment

There have been some fairly silly niggly posts on this thread today, so maybe it's catching. But exactly where did ANYBODY say anything to suggest they weren't bothered about promotion. A quote or a post number required..............

We have gained a point over a load of teams in the past 24 hours who should also have not dropped points against lower placed teams.

I seem to remember we stuffed Rotherham. Come on you are just upset we didn't concede so you have missed out cut and pasting another of your pre-typed sentences you spend all week composing.
